That other guy named Ed and DVs CRII build

[Double Venom]

This is how I put in the external latches. Picture 1 shows the original shaft cut and a twist that puts the 'foot' where I want it when the hood is closed. If you don't put a twist in it (heat-vice grips and a vise) when the hood is closed the handle will never be pointed correctly!

Hope these help who ever is installing these type of latches. (The lower bracket is +/- 1/8th inch strap steel x 1" and bent into the large 'U', then is fiberglassed in place, when dried I drill one hole through the body on each end of the strap then I use 10-32 scres and nuts to also hold it in place.)
